Cannot talk to launcher

Hello all,

Sometimes if I shutdown my Suse 10.0 / KDE 3.5.1 system I get the following
message: "Cannot talk to launcher".

I have a few questions:

1 What is the launcher supposed to do.

2 How can I find out what is wrong.

3 How could it be corrected
Regards,

Frans Leerink

Have a look through the hidden file .xsession-errors in your home dir to
see if you can find which app is causing the crash, here on this
machine akregator will cause messages if I try and logout when it is
still running ( actually shutting it down beforehand still pulls the
crash dialog anyway ) this is a known KDE bug and is on the KDE
bugzilla, have a chack there for latest news once you find the
offending application.
